Описание: Well, I did it! Even amongst sorting through UnTwelve stuff we've got a transcription for ‪@L4MPLIGHT‬ 's new microtonal conlang banger "Yxeni."

It's in 41-TET, and when you transcribe it like this (using Stein-Zimmerman accidentals) it can be easily read in 41-TET or 24-TET, with no loss in translation! The creator mentioned the song's structure could work in 24-TET as well. Like Caftaphata, this was a transcription I did by ear that's necessarily incomplete because of instrumental details and the like (for something freely given like this two staves is enough to get the idea, any more is too much extra work)! There are some high notes that don't sound like the melody, implied by chord symbols. I tried to mess with note sizes to highlight important voices too. No drums. The text is kind of readable in a romanized way (Lamplight gave helpful edits to the text so I'm sure it's right)! My font didn't have 100% of the diacritics needed but most of them, so hopefully I'm not butchering the text by presenting it this way :) It's generally using stacks of ~3/2 and 11-limit thirds with a few extremely occasional ~7/4's (spelling these as augmented sixths fits better with the music's enharmonics, and allows us to keep it readable in both 41 and 24).

41-TET is notated using its chain of fifths, ups/downs, and quarter-tone accidentals (Stein-Zimmerman). There's no sesqui-sharp character to type normally so I have used 3 half-sharp characters for those below. This results in a chromatic scale like so:

0: C
1: C^ / Ddb
2: Cǂ / Dbˇ
3: C♯ˇ / Db
4: C♯ / Db^
5: C♯^ / Dd
6: Cǂǂǂ / Dˇ
7: D
8: D^ / Edb
9: Dǂ / Ebˇ
10: D♯ˇ / Eb
11: D♯ / Eb^
12: D♯^ / Ed
13: Dǂǂǂ / Eˇ
14: E
15: E^ / Fd
16: Eǂ / Fˇ
17: F
18: F^ / Gdb
19: Fǂ / Gbˇ
20: F♯ˇ / Gb
21: F♯ / Gb^
22: F♯^ / Gd
23: Fǂǂǂ / Gˇ
24: G
25: G^ / Adb
26: Gǂ / Abˇ
27: G♯ˇ / Ab
28: G♯ / Ab^
29: G♯^ / Ad
30: Gǂǂǂ / Aˇ
31: A
32: A^ / Bdb
33: Aǂ / Bbˇ
34: A♯ˇ / Bb
35: A♯ / Bb^
36: A♯^ / Bd
37: Aǂǂǂ / Bˇ
38: B
39: B^ / Cd
40: Bǂ / Cˇ
41/0: C
